Course overview
Hazardous waste is a by-product of pretty much all industrial processes. Handled properly, these materials don’t cause harm, but accidents can happen, and things do sometimes go wrong. If spilled or exposed, hazardous materials can cause some serious damage.
As an employer, you need to be prepared and ready to respond before a spill or other accidental release happens. OSHA, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, provides extensive guidance and regulations to help you do just that.
